In a game the other day , my friends and I ran into 2x situations that we couldn't figure out,

1. A Necron Night Scythe had moved at cruising speed previously, then sufferd a Locked Velocity result. ( So it must move at least 19" the next time it moves). Then in the same shooting phase also suffered a Crew stunned result (which says "if the vehicle is a zooming flyer it instead can only move 18" and cannot turn") which is the flyer supposed to do on its next turn, move 18" or 19"+?

Then oddly enough almost the exact same thing happened to the other Night Scythe in the SAME shooting phase but in a different order.

2. Previously moved at cruising speed, suffered a "stunned" , then a Locked Velocity.

What the heck is supposed to happen here

Good question, sadly I have no idea!, firstly the flyer should roll for its ignore shaken/stunned roll (not sure if thats done after the result has been rolled or end/start of turn?) so if that passes that will make it simple.

If I was playing I would say roll a d6, on a 1-3 the 18inch move applies, 4-6 the 36inch move applies, reason why I would do that is from memory the locked velocity is specfic and so is stunned/shaken.

I suppose there is always the arguement that the flyer will crash and burn as it cannot do both.

Another reason to take extra armour on flyers!

Q: If a Flyer suffers Locked Velocity and was moving at Cruising
Speed (18"-36"), what speed is its velocity actually locked at? (p81)
A: 36".

So the flyer is locked at 36 inches if it went 19 inches.

However, in your situation you have two rules telling you to go two different speeds. There is nor real RAW correct way to move the vehicle.

So either roll a die to determine what rule takes precedence, or come to an agreement with your opponent about it.

Yup, the way we played it was to adhere to the last result. thanks for trying to help though
